1928 CHÂTEAU D'YQUEM 1928
Note from the chateau: The cool climate of spring gives flowers that are just normal in precocity; followed by a hot, dry summer, thunderstorms at the end of August/beginning of September which brought 50 mm of rain; the noble rot develops and offers a very rich first half of the harvest. From October 9, the continuation is complicated with 100 mm and too few dry windows for the concentration, the quality will not be the same any more.
Expert's opinions
Wine information
Château informations
The Château d'Yquem is an area of 133 hectares including 113 hectares of vineyards, 102 acres operated, south of Bordeaux in Sauternes region that produces a sweet white wine ranked Premier Cru Superior, the only wine from the Sauternes category.
It is considered by many as the best Sauternes. The yield is only 6 hectoliters per hectare and in some years, if the quality is not deemed sufficient, the bottles are not sold under this label.
The wines are characterized by their complexity due to a significant amount of residual sugar and flavorings made by Botrytis cinerea. A relatively high acidity helps offset the sweetness. Another characteristic for which Château d'Yquem is known is his longevity. In good years does present a bottle of his outstanding after one or two decades in a cellar and with care it will keep for a century or more, adding to the complexity...
Since 1959 Chateau d'Yquem produces a dry white wine named "Y" (and before 2004 "Y Lur-Saluces") makes an equal proportion of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc. This wine, like great wine is not produced every year. The 2005 vintage was the first vintage of Yquem offered for sale en primeur.
